1. Grenada
The island of Grenada, also known as ‘Spice Island’, is one of the most popular tourist destinations for Carribean holidays as much of the beautiful mountainous scenery is covered with unspoilt rainforests and waterfalls, giving the island a truly tropical feel. St George, the historic and picturesque capital offers the chance to experience island life amongst the locals, and the Saturday market is great fun to visit.

A visit to Thailand really is a feast for the mind and senses. From the famous shopping and nightlife of Bangkok to the long white powder beaches of the beautiful coastlines, Thailand offers something for everyone. The country’s natural beauty and unique history and culture ensures that Thailand remains a hugely popular destination for holidaymakers, and the cuisine really is second to none.

3. Maldives
Clear seas, white sands and pure tranquillity make the Maldives the perfect destination for romantic holidays and honeymoons. The 1,190 small slands are largely uninhabited and surrounded by coral reefs. The majority of the resorts and hotels in the area are located on their own exclusive islands, so you can be sure of a truly private retreat.

4. Barbados
The most easterly of the Caribbean islands and a popular choice for couples looking for weddings abroad, Barbados combines the stunning scenery we expect from Caribbean destinations with a wider variety of possibilities for nightlife, shopping and eating out. In contrast to the calm western coastline on the Caribbean sea, the eastern coastline is exposed to the Atlantic ocean, making for some dramatic beautiful scenery.

5. Bali
The Indonesian island of Bali is the ultimate picturesque tropical destination with its palm fringed beaches, luxury hotels and a wealth of culture waiting to be discovered. Bali also boasts some of the very best crafts and shopping in the Far East and an ardent shopper could easily lose themselves for days in the buzzing streets and markets in the small local towns.
